The filmmakers hoped they would one day get to witness the volcano’s eruption from their home of La Palma, in the Canary Islands. Little did they know it would start only two kilometres from their friend’s house. Voice messages exchanged on WhatsApp are complemented by images shot on the island, revealing a tragic yet eminently dazzling and hypnotic phenomenon.
